Thank you so much for your comment and word...Abby,<br /><br />Thank you so much for your comment and words of encouragement. Knowing that my post spoke to you in such a meaningful way makes me really happy that I decided to write it.<br /><br />I guess we&#39;re fortunate to have such a capacity for love, because even though we may forget to apply it to ourselves we can still, with a little bit of reflection, sometimes realize that we are probably just as deserving as those we do feel compassion for.<br /><br />Always wishing you the best. :)<br /><br />Your cloth buddy,<br /><br />JeremyJeremyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10751095710685117641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4389808854888691720.post-9667562582472895152014-03-27T21:59:54.219-07:002014-03-27T21:59:54.219-07:00Jeremy, this speaks to me on a deep, profound leve...Jeremy, this speaks to me on a deep, profound level. As I&#39;ve struggled with my anxiety disorder, one of the best coping strategies I have is treating myself with the love that I would give to a friend going through the same challenges. I feel like you and I are cut from the same cloth, with so much love to give the world, and so ready to give that love to someone worthy, but in the process we forget to love ourselves. <br /><br />I relate to so much of what you&#39;ve said. Being compassionate towards myself is sometimes the only way that I can &quot;justify&quot; making healthy choices like eating right or exercising. It&#39;s like I feel that I don&#39;t deserve to be taken care of for some reason. But if I think about what I would do for someone else I love, it makes sense. I&#39;m able to encourage myself in a gentler way, and it&#39;s made all the difference in the world. Thank you for writing this<br /><br />Sending you strength and encouragement on your journey.<br /><br />-Abby BAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
